Take a look at the Days Gone full map

The Days Gone map takes time to reveal itself, and until it does the Days Gone full map and Days Gone locations will be a mystery. It means there's a lot to discover, but if you can also potential miss things, or explore in directions that don't reveal much. To help you avoid that, and to make sure you find all the best bits sooner rather than later we've got the full map laid out here. 

Once you start to explore in Days Gone, and eventually get past the Cascades and Hot Springs, you'll realize the game is much bigger than it initially appears. That opening zone you begin in is only about a third of the full Days Gone map, and as you start to unlock new areas it just keeps going. It can be easy to get lost if you're not sure what you should be heading for which is why we're here to help with this Dasy Gone map guide that shows you the fully revealed world and includes information about the different areas of Oregon.

Of course, this days Gone map guide obviously contains some minor spoilers about the game – as we detail territories in the order you unlock them, as well as some of the groups and dangers you'll encounter in the different regions - so if you want to go in blind, it’s best not to read on any further.

When looking at the Days Gone map in-game, you can’t zoom out all the way to take a look at the entire map. We’ve stitched together the image above for a rough look at the full map with almost all areas explored. The white cloudy areas indicate unexplored parts of the map, but most of these are mountaintops and inaccessible.

In the top left corner, the desert region with the huge mountain in the middle is Hot Springs, which has Ada Tucker’s camp in the woodland area to the west. The top right region is Cascades, which is the starting region with Mark Copeland’s camp in the south-west corner.

Below Hot Springs is Iron Butte, which is largely populated by Rippers and inaccessible for a huge portion of the game. To the east of there is Lost Lake, with Iron Mike’s camp in the very middle surrounded by Lost Lake on either side.

In the lower third of the map, the left side is Crater Lake, which has both Derrick Kouri’s camp in the north-west and Colonel Garrett’s camp in the very middle of Crater Lake. Highway 97 is the final region found to the east, which doesn’t have a camp at all. Finally, the huge snowy mountainous region simply separates Crater Lake and Highway 97 from the rest of the map and is known in-game as the Thielsen Pass.
